Sunan Abu Dawud 799 — Recitation In Zuhr

حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا هَمَّامٌ ، وَأَبَانُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْعَطَّارُ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، بِبَعْضِ هَذَا ، وَزَادَ فِي الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ : بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ ، وَزَادَ . عَنْ هَمَّامٍ ، قَالَ : " وَكَانَ يُطَوِّلُ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى مَا لَا يُطَوِّلُ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ ، وَهَكَذَا فِي صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ ، وَهَكَذَا فِي صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ " .
The above mentioned tradition as been reported by Abu Qatadah through a different chain of narrators. This version adds: He would recite Fatihat al-kitab in the last two surahs. Hammam added: He would prolong the first rak’ah but would not prolong the second so much; and he did so similarly in the afternoon prayer, and so in the morning prayer.
